Lasky production of Hector Turnbull's thrilling society - drama, "The Cheat." It is a Paramount Picture. ' Miss Ward made such a pronounced success as the little country girl in 'The Marriaee of Kitty." that her friends were under the impression, she was essentially a icometl. enne, 'but in "The Cheat" Another side of her wonderful versatility is shown and she commands great admiration for her wonderful dramatic force and technique. Sessile Havakawa. the distinguished Japanese artist, who made such a pro nounced success playing . opposite Blanche Sweet in "The Clue" again gives one of his finished performances opposite Fanny Ward. Mr. Hayaka wa is considered one of the most emin ent artists on the Japanese stage and those who have seen him in this coun try can readily observe why he merits the consideration. 'Mr. llayakawa came to this country a number of years ago and studied literature and drama tat the Chicago University. He then translated many of the modern American plays, as well as the' clas sics, into Japanese. He returned to Japan and has the distinction of being the first dramatic actor to appear in Shakespeare and Ibsen plays on the Island. Mr. Hay&kawa has now a plan on foot to organize, after the war, an all-star Japanese dramatic company with which to tour the world to show the different countries how Japan has advanced in the dramatic art. ' Jloctor Turnbull, the playwright, wrote "The Cheat" especially for Miss Ward and Mr. Havakawa, and it is safe to say that it will be one of the most thrilling and uiivjsual pttioto dramas ever seen on the screen. The scenes of the play are located on fashionable Long Island. The big society lawn fete s(im1 (ball afford great oppoitunity for the display of the smartest fashions. . i , The entire production is made in the usual lavish and artistic Lasky man ner and is directed by Cecil B. De Mille personally, and he considers it his best work since Ihe produced the Geraldine Fa;rrar production in "Oar men." ' v Prominent in the support of Miss Ward are Jack Dean, James Neill, Tom Forman, Florence Dagmar, Havel Childers and others.r Adv. -k. suiter '-"'"'ijll : I . other is a DUTY that you should do for yourself. , Make it a ruling to save a certain portion of your salary each payday, and deposit it with this bank.

Tnrt ixaf mno riof nthnr Eastern Ore- con towns are r oing to follow the lead of Pendleton in passing a dance regu lating ordinance, letters, T.ne jvass Oregonian says, have been received by recorder Fitzgerald from the city councils of Enterprise and Bend ask ing for copies of the ordinance. This was on Jan. 15. 1915. Fortifvine the position strongly as an observation point, one oeronans held the crest until March 23, when French stormed the hill,- took the trenches at the top, captured 10 of ficers, 34 noncoms and 313 men all unwounded. Earlv in April the Germans re captured part of the lost trenches, J but the f rencn, tar side oi tne sum-1 mit. Humiliated, the Germans prepared a counter-attack which they launched April 26, organizing the position so it would be stronger than ever. All night they worked, the preciptous slope, of "Old Armand," and despite machine guns, rifle fire and bayonets i they reached the top and put the j Germans to rout once more. Immediat-! ly the Germans tried to rally but failed thouch they established trench es within seven yards of those of the French at the top. Throughout the summer the little war in the middle of the big war kept going driving them out and tak ing a correspondending slice or the Germans trenches a bit lower down the slope. , On Sept. 9 the uermans after a period of comparative calm, slammed home a surprise attack and retook the summit. The French undismay ed, came back at the Germans the same night and in the dark fought like the blue demons people call them. They retook their trenches and many German dead were left Taehind. v- Tho ame thing happened all over sprain Oct. 15 when, the Kaiser's sent wave after wave against the bitterly contested mountain top finally taking the whole works driving the Frentfi back down the hill in the direction of Franco. But on Oct. 16 tho French came tearing up the hill agfiin and drove the Germans out. The Germans camo h-ck in Decern. ber several times, gaining a foothold, but just before Christmas the French drove them back with heavy losses, incWirig nearly 1400 prisoners. Two days later the uermans retuun. of the. lost ground and some French prisoners. Then the French surged forward, making new gains and tak ing about 300 more. . So the struggle iur um w v;. mountain goes on. To hold it is an honor. To win this many soldiers t. .,. aa TVn the lavman their death may seem vain, loonsn, useiea, uuu .I Via soldier not a drop of blood has v.- waste!-. For in (War. victory or defeat depends largely on what the French call "moral," and to hold tho top of Hartsmannswillerkopf helps the moral of the whole armyof the Vosges. 1 alfalfa seed.
